Lovely Sterling Filigree Ruby Ring Size 5 3/4
Here is a truly charming solid sterling silver Art Deco style filigree Ruby ring. . It is a size 5 3/4 . It has lovely filigree work with a oval lab Ruby in the center. The top measures slightly over 3/8 inch top to bottom and narrows to the back.. It is hallmarked 925 inside the band. A lovely ring to add to your jewelry collection or as a gift to someone special.A BIT OF HISTORYAfter serving in World War 2, Guy James opened a jewelry store in East Tennessee. It was in a small town with mostly farmers and some factory workers. He was unable to sell much gold jewelry or his favorite...antique jewelry because most of the folks he dealt with just didn't have the money. So he began to take beautiful antique gold jewelry and make molds of them and then recast them in sterling silver. He became known for his beautiful, quality and unique pieces. Mr James died in 1991. After his death, his wife just closed the shop. The jewelry just sat. She passed away in 2011 and I have been commissioned to sell the contents of the store. When I asked the son why none of this had been sold before , he told me that his mom would not allow it because she said there was a piece of their father in each piece.
